Computational protein design (CPD) refers to the use of computational methods to design proteins. Traditional methods relying on energy functions and heuristic algorithms for sequence design are inefficient and do not meet the demands of the big data...
Machine learning applications in protein sciences have ushered in a new era for designing molecules in silico. Antibodies, which currently form the largest group of biologics in clinical use, stand to benefit greatly from this shift. Despite the prol...
Accurate prediction of enzyme kinetic parameters is crucial for enzyme exploration and modification. Existing models face the problem of either low accuracy or poor generalization ability due to overfitting. In this work, we first developed unbiased ...
Optimizing enzymes to function in novel chemical environments is a central goal of synthetic biology, but optimization is often hindered by a rugged fitness landscape and costly experiments. In this work, we present TeleProt, a machine learning (ML) ...

Since the structure of enzymes determines their function, elucidating the structure of enzymes lays a solid foundation for deciphering their catalytic mechanism and enabling rational design. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) has sparked...
Terpenoids, also known as isoprenoids, represent the largest and most structurally diverse family of natural products, and their biosynthesis is closely related to cytochrome P450 enzymes (P450s). Given the limitations of direct extraction from natur...
Protein sequence design is a highly challenging task, aimed at discovering new proteins that are more functional and producible under laboratory conditions than their natural counterparts. Deep learning-based approaches developed to address this prob...
